* All volunteers in Kenya will need to apply for a local permit once they arrive in the country. The permit currently costs US$145 and it needs to be renewed on a monthly basis if you are staying for longer than 4 weeks. Each renewal costs a further US$145. While a Projects Abroad staff member will assist with this process, the expense is not included in the Projects Abroad prices and must be paid by the volunteer.

** All volunteers in Tanzania will need to apply for a local permit once they arrive in the country. This currently ranges from US$200-$250 based on where volunteers are located. While a Projects Abroad staff member will assist with this process, the expense is not included in the Projects Abroad prices and must be paid by the volunteer.

The prices vary depending on your chosen volunteer project, duration and destination(s). If you combine projects within a country you pay the placement fee for the most expensive project, then additional weeks fees as appropriate. If you combine projects in two or more countries you will get 10% off each placement fee (excluding language courses). Check out our Combinations page for more details.
